Employment Standards Compliance

Do I have to give workers paid time off for lunch? What happens if a manager stays late — do I owe her overtime pay? What do I have to do when my cashier tells me she is pregnant?

Questions like those above arise in every workplace. Your business needs to have the answers at hand as the Employment Standards Act (among other laws) demands compliance with basic minimum standards.
